Bitcoin has reached a record high of $118,000 in July 2025, prompting waves of active trading and investment in altcoins.
Bitcoin's Impact on the Altcoin Market
Bitcoin breaking the $118,000 mark shows a notable increase of 5.1% over the past 24 hours. This has led to capital investments shifting towards smaller assets that show growth potential. Analysts note that Bitcoin’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) suggests room for further growth, despite its current dominance.
New Opportunities for Investors: Hyperliquid and FloppyPepe
Hyperliquid (HYPE) is trading around $48.05, demonstrating a 6-8% rise over the last 24 hours. The protocol is attracting traders by offering leveraged trading alternatives. FloppyPepe (FPPE) is also gaining traction with its presale, offering unique tools for interaction within the decentralized finance space.
Trends in DeFi, Meme-Finance, and Infrastructure
Protocols such as Pi Network, trading at $0.47, and Polkadot, up 18% this week, show movement towards long-term growth. Updates in staking and governance in Polkadot attract developer and DeFi capital. These projects represent diverse directions, from infrastructure development to mobile mining.
As Bitcoin continues its active growth, opportunities arise for other crypto assets to capitalize on current trends and enhance their market potential.
